How to get and use a Library Card

Use your library card to check out a wide variety of materials such as books, magazines, DVDs, eBooks, audiobooks and more. A library card also grants you access to databases and internet.

For questions regarding library cards, please visit your local library or call 573-526-1087.

How do I Get a Library Card?

Stop by the Library and present photo identification, such as a driver's license, showing your name and current address. If the photo ID does not include your current address, another document, such as a recent utility bill, can be used. Library cards are free to those who live in or pay property taxes in the county.

Non-Resident Card Option:

Residents who live outside of the county obtain a non-resident card at the cost of $20 per family for 12 months. Some restrictions to databases and digital materials may apply to non-resident cardholders. Additionally, Interlibrary Loan Service is not available to non-resident users.
